Binary numbers Humans use the ten digits 0 through 9 to form base-10 or decimal numbers, whereas computers calculate and store numbers internally as binary numbers—numbers consisting entirely of 0’s and 1’s. For this exercise, we consider binary numbers that have the form 0. b1b2b3… where each of the digits b1, b2, b3, ... is either 0 or 1. The base-10 representation of the binary number 0. b1b2b3… is the infinite series
88. Verify that the base-10 representation of the binary number 0.010101... (which can also be written as 0.

- Express the binary number 1101.0012as a decimal number.arrow_forwardSuppose that the check digit is computed as described in Example . Prove that transposition errors of adjacent digits will not be detected unless one of the digits is the check digit. Example Using Check Digits Many companies use check digits for security purposes or for error detection. For example, an the digit may be appended to a -bit identification number to obtain the -digit invoice number of the form where the th bit, , is the check digit, computed as . If congruence modulo is used, then the check digit for an identification number . Thus the complete correct invoice number would appear as . If the invoice number were used instead and checked, an error would be detected, since .arrow_forwardYour friend sends a Whatapps message in hexadecimal, but you received it in decimal after being encrypted by the system.

- An IP address can be written as a 32-bit number. For a class B network, the two most significant bits are set to 10. The 16 most significant bits are used as a network ID, and the 16 least significant bits are used as a host ID. However, the host ID cannot be all O's or all 1's. How many hosts (i.e., host IDs) can there be on a class B network? Type your answer.arrow_forwardAbout how many bits would you need to represent it in binaryarrow_forwardThe binary form of the decimal 37 is (1 0010 1)2 (11010 0)2 (1 0 110 1)2 (1 0000 1)2arrow_forward
- Show that, given a 7-digit number, where all digits except perhaps the last is non-zero, you can cross out some digits at the beginning and at the end such that the remaining number consists of at least one digit and is divisible by 7. For example, if we take the number 1234589, then we can cross out 1 at the beginning and 89 at the end to get the number 2345 = 7 x 335.arrow_forwardPlease help with explanationarrow_forwardConvert binary to Decimal (0010111001 )2 = ( )10 (0010111001 )2=???
